Question:

Given below are two statements :

Statement I : o-Nitrophenol is steam volatile due to intramolecular hydrogen bonding.

Statement II : o-Nitrophenol has high melting due to hydrogen bonding.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

  1. Statement I is false but Statement II is true

  2. Both statement I and statement II are true

  3. Both statement I and statement II are false

  4. Statement I is true but statement II is false

Correct Option: , 4

Solution:

thus it is more volatile due to intramolecular H-bonding.

Melting point depends on packing efficiency not on H-bonding thus statement II is false
